Sorry for following up my own post but I hit the <send> button too quickly.

One of the problems with the current Shorewall CVS is that the changes
that are unique to the .lrp are not maintained as patches that can be
applied to my released code. The Lrp*/ projects in my CVS are simply
images of the .lrp which means that when I change a file like
shorewall.conf that has an lrp-specific version then I have to manually
apply the change to the appropriate Lrp*/ project.

I have long wanted to rework that so that the .lrp could be built from
the mainline CVS project (as the .rpm is) with the lrp-specific content
and patches being the only thing kept in CVS. It would make my job a lot
easier and would make it possible for Leaf folks to build a .lrp from my
latest development code without me having to manually apply changes.

Any volunteers?
